Mistress Eleanor Deyeson

Eleanor as commonly pronounced, Deyeson is "Day-son."my device.jpg

Persona:

  • Born in 1319 in Bridport, Dorset, on the southern coast of England. My device reflects both my seaside heritage, and also christian imagery (very common in our historical period).
  • Motto - "I never met an artefact I didn't like." Which means I can be found wearing just about anything, as I'm most interested in the Material Culture of the SCA period, specifically Accessories. In order to learn about the accessories, I also study Costuming and Calligraphy & Illumination.
